Rough Treatment of a Watch.


A gentleman who lives near Ellijay put his
fine watch in his pocket and wendell his way to
the cotton patch for the purpose of hoeing cot
ton. Soon after chopping up few punches of
grass he felt something cold on his leg. and
thought it was a sand-cutter crawling up. He
at once dropped his hoe and grabbed his panta-
looms pulling them tight to his leg to stop the
lizard from crawling. and commended beating
it with his fist After knocking and stamp
ing all the cotton down in half-acre patch his
wife appeared upon the scene and excitediy ex-
claimed:
What in the world is the matter2 Are you
sickl
NO; there is lizard ND my pantaloons, and
just feel him now, biting
By this time he decided to pull off his
breaches to what it had done, and to his
chagrin he found that his watch had slipped out
of his pocket and fell the length of the chain
down lis leg and he had absolutely broken his
watch all to pieces, and driven parts of the
crystal into his leg

West Twent fourth street, New York. They
were married at Iona, Mich, in August 1873.
Mr.. Marshall is much the senior of his wife,
who is rated as a beautiful woman.
Some three years ago. as learned from the pc
tition. she left Columbus ostensibly for the pur
pose of studying for the stage, and during her
absence he has furnished her about Sc. 900 for
expenses while prosecuting her studies. Being
infatuated with her ne mortgaged his business
in order to furnish her all the funds she asked
for. The last call was made In June, when she
wanted $500, and Mr.. Marshall procee ded to
New York at once in the hope of getting his
wife to return. but she not only refused to do
so, but refused to see him, and announced that
she would not live with him again.
Among the alleged representations made to
Marshall by his wife, was that she had pro-
crossed rapidly in her studies and that she had
made a three-year engagement with DAILY for
leading parts It is alleged matter of fact
that she has not been engaged in any such study
since she has been in New York. The develop
ments have caused somewhat of a local sensa
ton, owing to the wide acquai ntance of the
parties in the community.

RIGHT Is RIGHT.

The nature of an action, as to
whether it is good or bad, right or
wrong, is not determined by its
author. That is, one action is not
right and good, simply because it
emanates from a certain source
neither is another action wrong and
bad, simply because it springs from
another particular source. A good
action is good, and bad action is
bad, irrespective, in each case, of
the agent who produced it and the
motive which inspired it. What is
right cannot be perverted into
wrong, and what is wrong cannot be
sanctified into right, in either case,
by its connection with its agency.
If it is absolutely wrong for one
man to commit specified deed, it
is wrong for any other man to do
the same, These automatic truths,
which require no proof, are here
stated for the consideration of gen.
tlemen who intimate that acts which
we're denounced as absolutely wrong
under the old regime may be coun-
tsnanced under the new.

ACCIDENT.

On Saturday evening Mr.. Jaeger
while going home in hack driven
by Portuguese met with an acci-
dent which fortunately did not re-
suit seriously. Mr.. Shaw, of the
Pantheon Stable, accompanied by
Mr.. Dick Davis was driving in from
Waikiki with a young and spirited
horse. When opposite Mr.. Young's
residence they saw a hack coming
at good pace, and hauled to the
right side of the road to let it pass,
but instead of going to the right,
the driver of the hack pulled his
horse to the left, and collision was
the result; the hack, horse and
driver were overturned and the pas
senger Mr.. Jaeger was taken out of
the overturned carriage, senseless,
but after a few minutes recovered
consciousness and proceeded home.
Mr.. Shaw's vehicle was broken by
collision with the hitching post and
telephone pole in front of Mr..
Young's residence. 1t was most
fortunate that nobody was seriously
hurt.
